Nets-What Are Pop Nets


Recommended Posts


a pop net is simply a small net ( roughly 2.5 foot long and 14 meshes wide) which can be used to cover the bolt holes in the rabbit warren. they were used alot of years ago when i was ferreting down south mainly on the hedgerows and open fields. they have just faded into oblivion as its just as quick to bung a purse net over the hole, the only disadvantage of that is sometimes the purse net is too big for the smaller 'pop' hole and the rabbit still escapes

i suppose with the pop holes being further away from the warrens its a thing that some ferreters dont take into consideration these days( including myself) till the bloody rabbit sticks its ugly head out of it and nicks off lol

Might mean differnt things in differnt parts of the country though ?,.

I agree, Iv'e never heard of them, although i haven't been rabbiting as long as some of the other guys on here.

 

But i know at work, different people use different terminology for all sorts of "common" tools and materials.
